From d127f9bd0e7b9b2e0df2de8a2227f77c0907468d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vincent Ambo Date: Wed, 18 May 2022 17:39:39 +0200 Subject: chore(3p/nix): unvendor tvix 0.1 Nothing is using this now, and we'll likely never pick this up again, but we learned a lot in the process. Every now and then this breaks in some bizarre way on channel bumps and it's just a waste of time to maintain that.

- -Release 1.9 (2015-06-12) - -In addition to the usual bug fixes, this release has the -following new features: - - - - - Signed binary cache support. You can enable signature - checking by adding the following to nix.conf: - - -signed-binary-caches = * -binary-cache-public-keys = cache.nixos.org-1:6NCHdD59X431o0gWypbMrAURkbJ16ZPMQFGspcDShjY= - - - This will prevent Nix from downloading any binary from the cache - that is not signed by one of the keys listed in - . - - Signature checking is only supported if you built Nix with - the libsodium package. - - Note that while Nix has had experimental support for signed - binary caches since version 1.7, this release changes the - signature format in a backwards-incompatible way. - - - - - - Automatic downloading of Nix expression tarballs. In various - places, you can now specify the URL of a tarball containing Nix - expressions (such as Nixpkgs), which will be downloaded and - unpacked automatically. For example: - - - - In nix-env: - - -$ nix-env -f https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-14.12.tar.gz -iA firefox - - - This installs Firefox from the latest tested and built revision - of the NixOS 14.12 channel. - - In nix-build and - nix-shell: - - -$ nix-build https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/master.tar.gz -A hello - - - This builds GNU Hello from the latest revision of the Nixpkgs - master branch. - - In the Nix search path (as specified via - NIX_PATH or ). For example, to - start a shell containing the Pan package from a specific version - of Nixpkgs: - - -$ nix-shell -p pan -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/8a3eea054838b55aca962c3fbde9c83c102b8bf2.tar.gz - - - - - In nixos-rebuild (on NixOS): - - -$ nixos-rebuild test -I nixpkgs=https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-unstable.tar.gz - - - - - In Nix expressions, via the new builtin function fetchTarball: - - -with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-14.12.tar.gz) {}; … - - - (This is not allowed in restricted mode.) - - - - - - - - nix-shell improvements: - - - - nix-shell now has a flag - to execute a command in the - nix-shell environment, - e.g. nix-shell --run make. This is like - the existing flag, except that it - uses a non-interactive shell (ensuring that hitting Ctrl-C won’t - drop you into the child shell). - - nix-shell can now be used as - a #!-interpreter. This allows you to write - scripts that dynamically fetch their own dependencies. For - example, here is a Haskell script that, when invoked, first - downloads GHC and the Haskell packages on which it depends: - - -#! /usr/bin/env nix-shell -#! nix-shell -i runghc -p haskellPackages.ghc haskellPackages.HTTP - -import Network.HTTP - -main = do - resp <- Network.HTTP.simpleHTTP (getRequest "http://nixos.org/") - body <- getResponseBody resp - print (take 100 body) - - - Of course, the dependencies are cached in the Nix store, so the - second invocation of this script will be much - faster. - - - - - - - - Chroot improvements: - - - - Chroot builds are now supported on Mac OS X - (using its sandbox mechanism). - - If chroots are enabled, they are now used for - all derivations, including fixed-output derivations (such as - fetchurl). The latter do have network - access, but can no longer access the host filesystem. If you - need the old behaviour, you can set the option - to - relaxed. - - On Linux, if chroots are enabled, builds are - performed in a private PID namespace once again. (This - functionality was lost in Nix 1.8.) - - Store paths listed in - are now automatically - expanded to their closure. For instance, if you want - /nix/store/…-bash/bin/sh mounted in your - chroot as /bin/sh, you only need to say - build-chroot-dirs = - /bin/sh=/nix/store/…-bash/bin/sh; it is no longer - necessary to specify the dependencies of Bash. - - - - - - The new derivation attribute - passAsFile allows you to specify that the - contents of derivation attributes should be passed via files rather - than environment variables. This is useful if you need to pass very - long strings that exceed the size limit of the environment. The - Nixpkgs function writeTextFile uses - this. - - You can now use ~ in Nix file - names to refer to your home directory, e.g. import - ~/.nixpkgs/config.nix. - - Nix has a new option - that allows limiting what paths the Nix evaluator has access to. By - passing --option restrict-eval true to Nix, the - evaluator will throw an exception if an attempt is made to access - any file outside of the Nix search path. This is primarily intended - for Hydra to ensure that a Hydra jobset only refers to its declared - inputs (and is therefore reproducible). - - nix-env now only creates a new - “generation” symlink in /nix/var/nix/profiles - if something actually changed. - - The environment variable NIX_PAGER - can now be set to override PAGER. You can set it to - cat to disable paging for Nix commands - only. - - Failing <...> - lookups now show position information. - - Improved Boehm GC use: we disabled scanning for - interior pointers, which should reduce the “Repeated - allocation of very large block” warnings and associated - retention of memory. - - - -This release has contributions from aszlig, Benjamin Staffin, -Charles Strahan, Christian Theune, Daniel Hahler, Danylo Hlynskyi -Daniel Peebles, Dan Peebles, Domen Kožar, Eelco Dolstra, Harald van -Dijk, Hoang Xuan Phu, Jaka Hudoklin, Jeff Ramnani, j-keck, Linquize, -Luca Bruno, Michael Merickel, Oliver Dunkl, Rob Vermaas, Rok Garbas, -Shea Levy, Tobias Geerinckx-Rice and William A.
